[–] aurelar@lemmy.ml 1 point 4 months ago (1 child) Can you say why you wouldn't be caught dead using GNOME? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] CoryCoolguy@lemmy.myserv.one [S] 1 point 4 months ago (1 child) Just don't like it. There's nothing inherently wrong with it but you won't catch me using it. If I was personally more invested in GNOME then I'd put some effort into getting it to work on Artix. But alas, that's got to be someone else's cross to bear. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] aurelar@lemmy.ml 1 point 3 months ago I used to use gnome, but I moved to XFCE when switching to Artix last year. I must say I think I like it better. I still get to use a convenient desktop that looks GNOME-ish, uses GTK, has a bunch of theme options, and is a lot more lightweight than GNOME without requiring systemd. It seems like the best of possible worlds at present, although I've wanted to try out a tiling window manager like dwm for fun. I'm not sure I'd be able to get used to/comfortable with using one as a daily driver though. permalink fedilink source parent
